Stewart-Haas Racing announced Wednesday afternoon that Tony Stewart‘s doctors are satisfied with the healing of an L1 vertebra burst fracture the No. 14 SHR driver and co-owner sustained in a Jan. 31 all-terrain vehicle accident.

 

Stewart’s doctors now are implementing a rehabilitation regimen to hasten the driver’s recovery, SHR said.

 

No timetable for Stewart’s return has been set, as further evaluations of his progress are needed.
